Description of repository / collection image holdings:
With nearly two thousand linear feet of manuscripts, over two hundred thousand rare books, and nearly fifty thousand visual images, the Special Collections Department at the Harvard Law School houses one of the world's most comprehensive collections of research materials for the study of legal history and the history of Harvard Law School, its students, faculty, and alumni. The Art and Visual Materials Collection documents this history through paintings and sculptures, prints and photographs, drawings, and artifacts dating from the 17th century to the present.
What we have in VIA:
Fine examples of all areas of the Art and Visual Materials Collection—prints, photographs, painting and sculpture, and three-dimensional objects—are represented in VIA.
